Chapter 466 Crew Injured
When she returned to the ship, she saw Li Yu'e and the others picking up things from the ground. Xia Xiaoman walked over and asked, "What are you picking up?"
Li Yu'e opened the bag in her hand and said, "These are some water plants and small fish that were blown up by the tornado."
"Most of these aquatic plants are new species. If we take them back to the laboratory for research, we may be able to find some useful value. We can also take these small fish and shrimp back for research."
"Now that the oxygen is so thin, small fish and shrimp can still survive. Maybe their body structure has changed. If they are edible, we can cultivate them."
We didn't find any mines to mine this time, so we can only use these things to make up the numbers. After all the hard work, we should bring something back!
Xia Xiaoman hadn't thought of this, "Then I'll take some people to pick some up."
Li Yu'e waved her hand and said, "No need. You guys must be tired after searching for so long. Go back to the ship and rest! We can pick up all these things quickly."
Xia Xiaoman shook her head. "Let's pick them up together, so we can pick them up faster. I'm afraid if we're slow, they'll be blown away by the wind."
The wind is still strong now, and the waves on the shore keep hitting the mountain. After leaving the cave, the crew has been outside in the wind and rain. If they finish picking up the water plants and small fish and shrimps as soon as possible, they can go back to the ship to rest.
Although their physical fitness has improved a lot, even the strongest body cannot withstand the constant rain and wind.
After picking up aquatic plants, fish and shrimps on the mountain, Xia Xiaoman and others all returned to the ship to avoid the wind and rain.
After changing into dry clothes, Xia Xiaoman sat by the window and looked out. He didn't know if the submarine was still there. It was too windy and rainy now, so diving was a bit dangerous. He would wait until the wind died down before going into the water to take a look!
"Xiaoman, are there any other medicines in the space? Take them out and show them to Luo Menglin." Li Yu'e walked over with an anxious look on her face.
Xia Xiaoman came back to his senses and looked at her, "What's wrong? Is anyone hurt?"
Li Yu'e nodded. "When Zhang Can was picking up fish and shrimp, the shrimp head pierced his shielding suit and pierced his hand. Now his finger is swollen. Luo Menglin said it should be poisoned."
"We only have iodine and other basic disinfectants for external injuries on board. Can you see if there are any pills for internal use that can clear away heat and detoxify?"
Xia Xiaoman found a box of cold medicine and said, "It says it can clear away heat and detoxify, but I don't know if it works."
Luo Menglin looked at the ingredient list and shook his head, "This medicine isn't very effective, so let's not waste it."
Li Yu'e frowned, "What about Zhang Can? Are there any other medicines?"
Hearing this, Xia Xiaoman continued to search the space. Luo Menglin said, "No need to take the medicine, take out the water plants you picked today! There may be an antidote in them."
There are antidotes to all kinds of poisons in the world. Those fish and shrimps were swept up the mountain along with the water plants, which means that these water plants may contain antidotes.
But this was just her guess. If she couldn't find the antidote, she could just cut off the poisoned finger.
Xia Xiaoman took out all the water plants and fish and shrimps, and asked Zhang Can to identify which kind of shrimp had stabbed him.
After finding the shrimps that were the culprit, Luo Menglin took all the shrimps and water plants to the restaurant for research. Without a studio, he could only use the restaurant to make up the numbers.
After trying several times, they didn't find any antidote, but they did find some poisonous water plants. The juice of the water plants was dripped into the mouth of the dying fish, and the fish's eyes immediately became bloodshot.
Seeing that Zhang Can's poison had spread to his arm, Luo Menglin finally found a useful aquatic plant.
Although this waterweed cannot detoxify, it can quickly regenerate red blood cells and white blood cells. Since it cannot detoxify, it will directly release the poison.
Luo Menglin enlarged the wound on Zhang Can's finger where the poisonous blood was being drained, and then cut another wound on his wrist to increase the speed of bleeding.
The blood with toxins continued to flow out of his body, and Zhang Can's face gradually turned pale due to blood loss. Luo Menglin had been observing Zhang Can's condition, and when Zhang Can was about to give up, he poured the medicine boiled with water plants into Zhang Can's mouth.
This method cannot completely cure Zhang Can, it is just delaying time. If the antidote is not found, Zhang Can may die.
Luo Menglin whispered: "My medical skills are limited. It is best to take Zhang Can back to the underground city as soon as possible and let professional doctors treat Zhang Can."
Xia Xiaoman frowned. It was raining so hard outside that she didn't know if she could get back to the underground city safely if she sailed back now.
After thinking for a while, Xia Xiaoman turned around and looked for Sun Qing and Ye Xiaojie. "In this kind of weather, is there a high chance of an accident while sailing?"
Ye Xiaojie took a look at the weather outside. "If we were at sea, the wind and waves would not be that big, and we could still sail normally. But there are many hills inland, and we are afraid that the bottom of the ship will hit the mountain."
Xia Xiaoman asked: "Would it be safer if we slowed down a bit?"
Ye Xiaojie nodded and said, "It will be safer, but the fuel consumption will be higher if we keep stopping and starting. We have already consumed a lot of gasoline to avoid the sawfish's attack, so we probably don't have much gasoline left now."
Xia Xiaoman frowned. She had gasoline in her space, but it was gasoline from before the end of the world, not gasoline refined from snow vines. She didn't know if it could drive the ship. Even if it could, it probably wouldn't be able to drive it far.
After thinking for a moment, she turned around and looked for Qin Shuyan, "Qin Shuyan, put on your diving equipment and go into the water with me to find the submarine later."
Qin Shuyan is a good swimmer, so if anything unexpected happens underwater, having Qin Shuyan around will provide an extra safeguard.
Maodan saw that she was going out, so he tugged at her trouser legs and insisted on going out with her. Xia Xiaoman thought that Maodan could paddle very fast, so she agreed to take him into the water.
The two men and the wolf put on their diving equipment and jumped into the water together.
The wind and rain were strong. As soon as Xia Xiaoman jumped into the water, she was swept up by the waves and was knocked down again the next second.
Maodan was big and heavy, so he was not lifted up by the waves. Seeing Xia Xiaoman was beaten dizzy by the waves, Maodan threw away the oxygen mask on his mouth, opened his mouth and bit Xia Xiaoman's leg and swam down.
After swimming under the water, Xia Xiaoman regained control of her body. Maodan saw that she could swim on her own, so he swam up and pulled Qin Shuyan, who was still struggling with the waves, down, and then swam back to Xia Xiaoman, asking Xia Xiaoman to help him put on the oxygen mask.
After entering the water, Xia Xiaoman gestured to Qin Shuyan, telling her that the submarine was nearby and that they should search for it separately.
Qin Shuyan responded with an OK gesture, then turned around and sank into the water. Xia Xiaoman also took Maodan to search for the submarine nearby.
The submarine is not light, so it will not be blown up unless it is placed in front of a tornado. Xia Xiaoman and his team searched for more than ten minutes before finding the damaged submarine.
